This charming, historic house has been tastefully restored into a welcoming and comfortable Airbnb. Located in the heart of downtown Norway, Maine, it is within easy walking distance of a cafe, craft brewery, community garden, natural foods store, yoga studio, and many unique, local craft shops. Norway is surrounded by abundant outdoor opportunities, including skiing, swimming, hiking, biking, and boating. This Airbnb supports local: 5% of profits are donated to the Alan Day Community Garden.

This house was built in 1900 and the architecture and interior spaces still reflect the historic charm of the era. The updated kitchen features a gas range, oven, full-size refrigerator, a built-in cabinet, and pots, pans, utensils, etc. The bedroom has a fireplace insert and mantel (for winter use only), a bluetooth sound bar/subwoofer, and gets great sunlight through the day. The entryway has a futon and can be used as a second bedroom. The bathroom has a sink, toilet, and shower.
The Garden House is named in celebration of local agriculture, which Maine is known for historically, and which has recently seen a remarkable resurgence. The Garden House donates 5% of profits directly to the Alan Day Community Garden, which is within a 5 minute walk, and guests will have access to the garden. The house is divided into private duplex apartments, each with their own entrance, so guests will be given their own key.

The Garden House is located in the heart of historic Downtown Norway, just a one-minute walk from Main Street. Norway is a blend of traditional Maine culture alongside progressive values that promote community resilience, environmental preservation, outdoor recreation, and alternative energy technology; This blend offers a unique twist on the typical rural Maine town, both maintaining the historic aesthetic appeal and also offering an abundance of opportunities for the adventurous souls. The local Norway Brewing Company offers a great selection of craft brews along with evening events (trivia night, etc.) and an outdoor beer garden in the summer. The local natural foods store carries a great selection of local items as well imported bulk items. The Cafe Nomad has a great menu for both breakfast and lunch, and of course, coffee! If you are looking for an evening with fancier fare, make a reservation at 76 Pleasant St, just a 5-minute drive away. Roberts Farm Preserve offers an extensive network of groomed Nordic ski and snowshoe trails that are free and open to the public (they also have free equipment for use on scheduled days). As a former high school ski coach I used to bring students there for training regularly- it's a great facility! Sunday River Ski Resort is a popular downhill slope in our area, and is a 45-minute drive from Norway. The Alan Day Community Garden is a beautiful green space in Norway, that represents the revitalization of our farming community. The Garden offers a free workshop series, community events, tours, and seasonal veggies for sale (check out the website for additional info). The Center for an Ecology-Based Economy (CEBE) is a unique organization that works to mitigate climate change- they hold free workshops, meetings and events and are open to the public. There are many events in Norway throughout the summer, including an art festival, a food festival, and theater, and we try to keep guests updated as much as possible.

The house is beautiful. Check-in was simple. We checked out the Norway Brewing Company on Rocky's recommendation, and had an amazing brunch.

Morgan2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

High recommend staying at Rocky's! It was very clean, spacious, and adorable.

Gia2017-09-17T00:00:00Z

Simply put, Rocky absolutely spoiled us. My husband and I drove all the way from Georgia and the moment we stepped through the door the house made the 20 hour drive worth it. The house is a beautiful historic home that has been given new life. It had gorgeous floors and we were blown away by the quaint kitchen. We had all the kitchen supplies we could need and then some! Rocky was very accommodating and responded quickly when we reached out to him and went above and beyond our needs! We would love to come back in the future!

Stella2017-06-15T00:00:00Z

Maine has lots of tourists. Rocky gives tourists an opportunity to stay with residents for neighbors, while accessing many of the great sights of western Maine and easy access to Portland airport.

Rhea2017-09-10T00:00:00Z

Have no complaints about Rocky's accommodations or hospitality. I honestly feel that his academic focus of "psychology and mysticism" really comes through in his apartment's decor - everything has a calm and welcoming vibe. Would absolutely recommend and stay there again.

Jon2017-08-25T00:00:00Z

We loved staying at Rocky's place. It's right near Main Street and makes for a quick walk to Nomad Cafe for breakfast in the morning and a quick walk to Norway Brewing Company for dinner and a drink in the evening!

Jim2017-07-07T00:00:00Z

The Garden House apartment was well appointed, cozy, exceptionally clean, comfortable and quite charming. Centrally located in scenic Norway, ME, the apartment is in walking & driving distance to local shops, eateries, the New Balance Factory Outlet Store, and walking trails. The hosts were very accommodating and gracious, making my stay very pleasant. They went above and beyond any traditional hotel, providing water, and other goodies/treats in the refrigerator. Knowing I like salads, Rocky left me fresh vegetables and herbs from their garden. It was delicious and a great bonus. I would recommend this location to anyone visiting the Lewiston area, taking their son/daughter on a college tour, or seeking a weekend getaway. I had a delightful and relaxing experience.

Vera2017-07-09T00:00:00Z

Great condo, nicely decotated and well equiped. Perfectly located to explore New England. Super host, perfect communication. Our whole family enjoyed the stay. Thanks a lot!

Welcome to the Bates College Area! This large remodeled in-town home with hardwood floors, large bathroom(s) and ample fully operational kitchen makes a convenient place for anyone with summer activities at Bates College or nearby Hospitals or just for a base to take day trips to the coast or mountains. While you are here, it is only you and your party! Bedrooms have air conditioning.

This property is protected by a Fire Suppression (Sprinkler) System and alarm system. The bedrooms are located on the second floor which also has a sitting area, full bathroom and laundry. You will have access to the first and second floor unlocked rooms. There is a large bathroom and laundry on the first floor as well.

This is a typical New England neighborhood located near by a college campus. Visit the beautiful walking paths around the college, the nearby Basilica and restaurants on lower Lisbon Street or across the river in Auburn and the walking trails around the falls. Let us know your interests and we will try our best to provide information.

Fred's place was one of the most unique places I have had the pleasure to stay at while using Airbnb. The place was enormous! As super big common area and great kitchen. It seems like during the school year, the rooms are rented to students and out of school, they become spots on Airbnb. My daughter and I had a blast staying there. I would recommend the place 100%

Richard2017-07-10T00:00:00Z

Incredible, spacious home that fit our needs perfectly for attending the Bates Dance Festival. Great value for the beautiful space and generous amenities. Fred is a generous and thoughtful host.

Andrew2017-07-25T00:00:00Z

Host was very easily reach by texting and answered all my questions, no matter how trivia the question was. The place was huge with many unoccupied rooms, fortunately we got the whole place to ourselves, very clean. Very comfortable beds, and very convinience like you stay at your own house with washer and dryer too. More than I expected, he even provided English muffins with peanut butter and jam for breakfast and 1 can of beer with frosted glass for the evening. Overall it was a great experience, I highly recommend this place to anyone that want to stay near White mountain forrest or Franconia Park or especially to Bates College. About 45 minutes drive from Portland,ME.

Tiffany2017-07-04T00:00:00Z

It is a spacious home, but with multiple rooms. The place is clean and well taken care of. The host provides clean towels and linen, and kitchen supplies, and is prompt in responding. We didn't have much time but you could easily cook yiur meals in the house. However, you do have to share the bathrooms and living areas with other guests if there are any. We were lucky there weren't any so we had the place to ourselves. Else just one bathroom on upper floor with multiple bedrooms would have been a problem. The bedroom furniture was good, but living area furniture could be updated over time. The TV had hundreds of channels. We also missed having closets in the bedrooms. Otherwise, a great stay, especially since we were visiting Bates which is within walking distance.

Rajesh2017-07-06T00:00:00Z

Extra spacious and clean apartment. Great amount of space for the value. Fred was friendly and helpful. I accidentally left something behind and he's mailing it to me.

Holly2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

I really enjoyed my stay here. The house has two living rooms and two bathrooms. It was very spacious! The bedroom was very nice and comfortable. Fred, the owner, was incredibly helpful. If you are looking for something fancy, this may not be the place for you (the furniture in the living room is a bit worn). But, the bedroom furniture was very nice. My room was quite spacious and comfortable (as was the kitchen too). The house as well as the neighborhood has a lot of charm. I thought it was great value for the price and was far better than staying in a hotel room. It was also a five minute walk to Bates College campus, which was very useful for me. I would definitely come back if I am in the area again. I highly recommend this house.

Lisa2017-06-25T00:00:00Z

The host canceled this reservation 4 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Talita2017-08-08T00:00:00Z

Overall, the place was good. The listing contains a little miscommunication and we were disappointed to find that the house is a dorm/hostel style with shared common spaces. The listing makes it seem like the accommodations do not have shared common spaces. Other than that, it was good and Fred was very attentive.

Nice one bedroom condo looks out onto the water of Lake Christopher. Great for a family or small group. Queen bed and bunk beds in bedroom. 2 docks for summer swimming. 5 min to Mt Abram or 20 min to Sunday River

Affordable lakefront/ Canoe provided/ wood stove and wood provided

This is a very beautiful place with a great view of the lake Bryant Pond. Facilities are perfect for a family ( we were four adults and two young kids). Kitchen and bathroom was clean and adequate. Ken was a considerate host. He was available and resourceful. The canoeing was the best highlight of our 2- night stay. We will certainly recommend this condo for a small group or a couple. And, not to forget, we will repeat our visit again to this place.

Prashanth2015-07-05T00:00:00Z

We spent 4 nights at Ken's place. Location is very good for skiing in Sunday River and very private after skiing time. The apartment was cozy, clean, kitchen is clean, equipped with all type of cooking tool. Ken was very responsive in replying email, providing additional information about the local area points of interests. Price was very good too! Highly recommended to anyone go to the area, particularly skiing in Sunday River and don't want to burn cash at the resort. Thanks Ken

Thanh2016-01-21T00:00:00Z

Awesome place to come to for a relaxing getaway. We enjoyed our time here by visiting the nearby swimming holes and hiking the White Mountain National Forest. Portland is only an hour or so away and is a very cool place to go spend a day. Ken's place was very comfortable and clean and would definitely like to stay here in the future.

Vincent2017-07-31T00:00:00Z

My partner and I found Ken's condo for a last minute trip to Sunday River. The condo is great, secluded and right on the pond, and an easy drive to Sunday River in the morning. The kitchen was well stocked, and even though Ken was away on deployment, he communicated very quickly! Check in and parking and directions were all very easy! Sean and I loved our system, and we would certainly stay again!!

Max2017-02-20T00:00:00Z

Great place to stay in rural Maine. Beautiful countryside near Bethel. Condo was great and the lakeside view is spectacular.

Jared2015-10-15T00:00:00Z

We like the condo so much. It located beside the lake. The view is really nice. It made you feel relaxed. You can swim, kayaka and just sit there. The condo is clean and just as the picture. We had a good time there.

bob2015-08-11T00:00:00Z

Perfect ski condo for a weekend at Sunday River. The condo was equipt with everything you'll need including a queen, two twins, and two pullout couches. Kevin was a very accommodating host and left us perfect instructions and was available when we had questions. Absolutely would stay again!!

Drew2015-03-02T00:00:00Z

Ken was ver responsive and thorough with instructions. The unit was charming, immaculate , well located and with lovely view of Bryant Pond.

Our space is bright and open. The guest bedroom is off of the kitchen near the back of the house and very private. Guests have access to spacious living and dining rooms and kitchen. The bathroom is shared as we stay in the same apartment as guests. Finally, we do have a cat and dog (one year old black lab). They are both very friendly and loving.

The apartment is very spacious. We recently bought the building and take a lot of pride in maintaining it and ensuring that our tenants and guests are well-cared for. We are walking distance from Bates (3 min) and downtown (10 min). And we love to read so please feel free to take any book off of the shelf!

The place was very spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable and there were many books and magazines to read in the house. I liked every moment of it. Affordable and easy living if you have to stay in Lewiston for a couple of days

Erkin2016-03-18T00:00:00Z

Julie and her husband are great hosts, they offered their house generously, and were flexible with checking in late at night. I would definitely recommend staying with them.

Allen2017-03-23T00:00:00Z

Julie was there to greet us when we arrived. She and her husband, Matt, were very thoughtful and hospitable. They made sure we had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. Thank you, Julie, Matt!

Michelle 2016-08-27T00:00:00Z

Julie and Matt were very welcoming and were eager to share their home and any food or beverages I wished to enjoy. They also gave me a book (which they 2 of) which makes them ok by me! The place was clean and as described. They also provided advise on where to eat.

Brooks2016-09-28T00:00:00Z

Julie and her husband Matt made us feel very welcome. Communication was great, including giving us tips about where we might want to eat before our arrival. The room was spare but great books were plentiful, and their apartment was very clean and well-kept. Comfortable bed and quiet neighborhood made for a great night's sleep. Recommended!

Jennifer2016-09-24T00:00:00Z

My stay in Maine couldn't have gone any better. Julie and her husband are great hosts and very nice people. I only stayed a single night but it was perfect. I highly recommend staying with them if you are in the area. The room was very clean and tidy. The place was easy to find and the location was close to many disc golf locations that we came to see. The bed was also very comfy which was a huge bonus for me. Thank you Julie!

Our Queen Anne building in Central Maine, Lewiston/Auburn area. Ground fl. is the Inn's lobby , TV and Breakfast Room. 2nd Fl. has 4 guests room with all in room amenities, but we only offer it for the Inn's guests that make reservations directly with the Munroe Inn. 3rd Fl is a 3 bedroom apartment being renting through Airbnb. 1 king, 2 queens, foyer, TV room and large communal bathroom with the bathtub (has hand held shower). 2 rooms with TV, airconditioning, wifi.

Downtown Auburn is the place to be if you have business in the area, or stoping over for a night.

We loved our four nights at Olga's place. The upstairs of her B& B are exactly as described. The entire top floor is beautiful, clean, and comfortable. Olga is very friendly and welcoming! The neighborhood is quiet but walking distance into town. We would definitely recommend staying here and would definitely come back.

Jo Lynn2017-08-28T00:00:00Z

A beautiful 3 bedroom apartment in a Victorian bed and breakfast. Lovely, eclectic rooms, cozy beds and our charming hostess, Olga. Time did not permit us to have her breakfast this time but we will definitely next time. The inn is filled with interesting artwork, furniture and furnishings. We are looking forward to a return visit!

Heidi2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

I enjoyed my visit to the Munroe Inn and Breakfast. Olga is a warm and caring host. The Inn is located on a quiet street with private overnight parking. My room was beautifully appointed with fresh linens, towels, all beauty accessories needed. I loved the front bay window and the stained-glass windows. The room was plenty roomy and comforting after a long day running around. Olga and her inn staff make the most wonderful breakfast. Do not expect to go away hungry. While I did find her in on Air BnB, I would stay here again as a regular Inn guest. Looking forward to my next visit to Auburn because I have found the perfect home away from home.

ANGELINA2015-11-15T00:00:00Z

Olga's place is a lovely space. Stayed here with four friends going to a wedding in Auburn, and it made the perfect home base for a special wedding weekend.

Our place is close to the beaches & the mountains. You’ll love our place because of the natural sunlight, the comfy beds and the quite ambiance. Our place is good for one or two couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers.

Great location, perfectly centered between Sunday River, Mt. Abram, and Shawnee Peak. Less than 40 minutes away from North Conway, NH.

Spring and Summer brings alive local farm stands and farmer's markets are found nearby in different towns almost daily.
September and October is fair season, you can go to an agricultural fair every week this time of year.
Fryeburg Fair, Oxford Fair
Don't want to ski at just one Mt., stay here. So many mountains so close.

Joanee was extremely welcoming. She greeted us at the door and gave a quick tour of the apartment. She went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable in the apartment and had everything we needed. The apartment was clean, the beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of blankets to keep us comfortable. I would highly recommend staying here!

KAITLIN2017-05-07T00:00:00Z

Tim & Joanne's apartment above the garage was perfect for our weekend in the Maine countryside. The beds and furniture were comfortable; the kitchen and bath were well stocked. We were delighted to find juices & bottled water and fresh fruit & muffins upon our check-in. Best of all, our hosts were friendly and welcoming (but totally respected our privacy).

Gail2017-09-03T00:00:00Z

Tim and Joanne are very nice people and very accommodating. We had everything we needed. We would definitely stay there again. Already booked next year. Laura & Art

Laura2017-08-04T00:00:00Z

Tim and Joanne's home was very warm and inviting. About an hour away from Portland, it was the perfect quiet lake getaway. Tim and Joanne were the most wonderful hosts, making sure we were comfortable and offered a wealth of information about our surroundings. Their blueberry muffins added a delicious touch to our stay. Thank you both for a lovely stay. We would come back and stay here again.

Alexandra2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

We booked our stay on short notice (business trip) and our hosts communicated with us quickly. They had someone meet us when we arrived to help us settle in and provided information about restaurant in area. The place was exactly as shown and was immaculate. We had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Our hosts were friendly and helpful.

Great place to ski and stay Sunday River. Tim and Joanne are very friendly. We very much felt at home in our own private space. Would recommend this space anytime.

Ashleigh2017-01-15T00:00:00Z

This was our first experience with airbandb and we couldn't have been more satisfied. Tim and Joanne were the perfect hosts!!! Friendly, accommodating and welcoming. A place we called our home away from home for the weekend. The place was exactly what is pictured; clean, spacious and cozy. We look forward to our next trip to Waterford/Bridgton and staying with Tim and Joanne again.

Apartment has a private bedroom, a living room, kitchen, dining area, full bath and an open den. There is a lovely private deck, great place to enjoy morning coffee. Partial view of lake from dining area in apartment and outside sitting area on back lawn.

Apartment is located on a quiet lake road with mainly year round homes. Apartment is on Middle Range Pond. Upper Range Pond can be accessed from Middle Range by boat or car. In the summer you will find folks enjoying all types of water sports on the lake with the exception of jet skis. In the winter, once the lake has safely frozen over, many enjoy, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling and ice fishing. This is a great location as you are less than an hour to many Maine hot spots such as Portland, Freeport, Sebago Lake and Sunday River.

Located in Central Maine, this is a lovely, spacious and very quiet space. We had activities to do all over Maine: Brunswick, Portland, Kennebunkport, and Waterville. This was the ideal "central" spot for us. There are really two sitting room areas, one you can sit in and the other you can graciously spread out your luggage. Very easy space to use. I recommend it for anyone.

We are a beautifully landscaped in- home country B&B with a separate second story efficiency apartment. At ground level we have a large patio space, patio furniture , gas grill for cookouts as well as acres of lawn and fields for a leisurely walk . Our well groomed lawns make it a perfect place for a game of Frisbee or a great place to exercise your dog. There is more than ample room for parking in our circular drive.

We are only 1 mile from the main highway, yet in a country setting close to grocery , gas stations, and family friendly restaurants . A large array of shopping choices is only 15 - 20mins. away in our capital of Augusta. An antique shoppers' paradise, in the town of Hallowell, lends itself to an eclectic atmosphere of pubs and eateries known for their home brews.

Great apartment!! We had such a wonderful stay in this beautiful apartment. Highly recommended for short or long term stay. Our hosts were very accommodating.

The apartment is very comfortable. Shirley was an accommodating host and the whole area was beautiful.

Ben2016-09-06T00:00:00Z

We contacted Shirley late in the day of the night we wanted to stay, she communicates quickly back to us and had availability, our good luck! This apartment is the cleanest place I have ever stayed, and I travel extensively. We were so appreciative of the private layout, the new air conditioner which served the whole place very well, the clean linens, full kitchen and washer dryer (which we didn't use but surely would have for a stay longer than a few days). Shirley made us delicious breakfast and coffee and she and her husband joined us for breakfast, we are so happy to have spent time getting to know them, a gracious and friendly couple. My boyfriend's comments, "They were incredibly kind and generous people and the experience was wonderful". I have literally nothing negative to say in any capacity. You will never regret this option if you stay here.

Located on a dead end street, this is a quite neighborhood in a country setting. We welcome travelers for any length of stay. Our home is located about 14 miles from the Lewiston/Auburn (Central Maine Medical and St. Mary's, BatesCollege) 22 miles from Augusta (MaineGeneral Medical Center) and 50 miles from Portland (Maine MedicalCenter). It's only a few miles to our local theatre, close to interstate 95, 295.

The space is an in-law apartment. You will have your own entry to come and go as you please. The bedroom has a queen size bed with dresser, end tables and large walk-in closet. There is a corner desk for your computer. The bathroom is located off the living room and has a full shower. The kitchen is equiped with all the necessities you need - toaster, coffee pot, dishes, pots and pans etc... There are 2 large storage areas within the apartment. The washer and dryer are for your use at no charge. They are located on the same level as the apartment but in shared space. Plenty of driveway space.

Close to interstate 95, 295. Near area hospitals. Several area lakes for boating, kayaking, peace of mind. There are several areas to hike in the surrounding towns for those days that you may want to unwind without driving very far.

We've been on Airbnb for 6 years and staying at Lynda's was our favorite Airbnb experience to date. My husband and I decided to visit Maine for my birthday and after our first rental fell through, we booked last minute (same day!) with Lynda. Lynda is a mother, grandmother, and foster mother and is sweet as pie. She met us at her place after a long journey with hugs, a bottle of wine, and homemade pasta sauce! Immediately we knew this trip was going to be special. Lynda's house is recently renovated and immaculate, with private lake access right off the dock in her back yard! It is a beautiful lake with crisp, clean water and my husband, dog and I did A LOT of swimming. Lynda also has canoes and kayaks for your use. We did yoga and meditation on her deck in the mornings facing the sunrise and stayed there til the evening when we watched the stars from the very same spots. It was totally serene and blissful. If you are looking for a peaceful, secluded (it's definitely off the beaten path! Lynda does have neighbors but we rarely saw them and it felt like we had to whole lake to ourselves), adventure, I couldn't recommend this place more-- in fact, we ended up extending our stay by another day and would have done longer if Lynda didn't have another guest arriving. Just make sure you come with everything you need because the nearest Hannaford's (supermarket) is about 10 miles away, which is exactly the kind of experience we were looking for. We will definitely be back.

Nana & Karim2016-09-02T00:00:00Z

Our experience at Lynda's home was incredible. My husband and I rented her place for a relaxing honeymoon in Maine, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The house was surrounded by beautiful, fall trees and nestled on a picturesque waterfront. Inside, it was so warm and cozy. Lynda had left us a sweet welcome note with our favorite wine, homemade pumpkin bread (that was delicious!), and treats for our dog. The kitchen had everything you could need to cook, and there were plenty of blankets/linens/towels. The view off of the back deck was amazing. We spent most of our time outside and loved sitting on the deck enjoying the sound of the loons, cozying up by the fire pit, and stargazing on the dock. The house was not too far from a grocery store (which was very convenient), and Portland was an easy 50 minute drive. We were so happy that we spent this special time here and so grateful to Lynda for being so kind and accommodating.

Amanda2016-10-25T00:00:00Z

Lynda was so responsive and helpful. Answered all questions and the house was great and comfortable. Would go back again for sure.

Patty2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

We loved our stay at Lynda's! It has all of the modern conveniences but is also very scenic and peaceful. Lynda was also very welcoming! We highly recommend it!

Kelly2017-09-22T00:00:00Z

Where do we begin? Lynda's home was absolutely amazing and more than we could have asked for or expected. It was even better in person! Lynda answered all of our questions before and during our stay in such a timely manner - her communication was excellent and made for a very easy and relaxing stay. She is so warm and personable - awaiting our arrival was a bottle of wine and homemade chocolate chip cookies! The lake house was clean, updated and fully stocked with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Bed linens, bath towels, beach towels, kitchen supplies, grilling equipment...you name it! And the view! The view is stunning! There is a large deck out back where you can sit back, relax and listen to the loons all day long. If you're looking to stay at a vacation home right on the water - it does not get better than Lynda's lake house. We stayed over Labor Day weekend and the weather was incredible. The lake was clear and perfect for swimming. And the dock was large enough for a few people to layout and relax. Our dog also had the time of her life and did not want to leave! She loved swimming in the lake, laying on the dock and relaxing on the deck. The house is tucked away from the hustle and bustle so you definitely get the feel of being in Maine. But just a short drive away and you are back to civilization with a gas station/convenience store and Hannafords grocery store nearby. This house is the perfect place to go if you want to get unplugged. There is wifi but no cable. If you're interested in having something on the tv, there is a dvd player (bring your own or there is a Redbox at Hannafords) or bring your own device that can connect to the tv for streaming, etc. But in all honestly, this house was perfect for simply relaxing, playing games and spending quality time away from it all. Overall, such a wonderful home and even better host. We were sad to leave but are already planning when we can visit again! Of all the places we've stayed, this is by far the best. We cannot wait to be back! Thank you Lynda!

Heather2016-09-05T00:00:00Z

Lynda was a great host. She responded very quickly to requests and made sure the house was clean and ready to go when we arrived. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Brett2016-12-26T00:00:00Z

Lynda's lakehouse was absolutely stunning. From the time I inquired about the lakehouse Lynda's communication has been perfect. She answered all my questions and even left several recommendations for me and my boyfriend to check out in Poland and the surrounding areas. We landed at night and when we woke up the view was absolutely stunning. True fall in Maine! The house was clean, well kept, fully stocked. She welcomed us with homemade pasta sauce and a bottle of red wine. Perfection! About a 45 min drive to Portland which we did often and 2 hour drive to Boston which we also did. We will definitely be back in the summer and we recommend this lakehouse to everyone.

Lynda was so incredibly hospitable! We had such an amazing time, the photos don't even do the home enough justice! When we arrived there was a bottle of wine along with a handwritten note and a homemade jar of sauce, to say we were treated like family is an understatement... the home was very clean and fully stocked with anything you could ask for. If you're looking for a cozy getaway with beautiful views, this is perfect! Would highly recommend staying with Lynda!

Very clean and bright fully-equipped apartment just up the hill from the historic village of Bethel. Private bath and comfortable, real bed for two adults, plus a fold-out couch and chair for small children or teens. Plenty of privacy on your own deck surrounded by trees, lots of hot water in the shower/tub, and a flat-screen Direct TV to watch the Red Sox and an ipod dock to listen to your own tunes. An hour away from the ocean and in the middle of the best leaf-peeping in the northeast, not to mention the fine dining at the many village inns. Our street Paradise Road lives up to its name: quiet, tree-lined, and picturesque with beautiful views of the mountains with their numerous hiking trails. Come to fly fish, play golf, rent a canoe or kayak for the many rivers and ponds all around. We are also only a short distance from the Appalachian Trail where some of our guests have hiked it a section at a time.

My husband and I stayed in Bruce's and Victoria's charming apartment for three nights. We had a great time there and enjoyed relaxing and having breakfast on the porch very much! Bethel is really close to the Grafton Notch State Park and Bruce was very helpful in planning our trip there. We didn't have a chance to meet Victoria, but Bruce was very friendly and welcoming and responded to our messages very quickly. We would highly recommend staying there!

Sabrina 2015-08-17T00:00:00Z

What a wonderful experience! Besides the apartment being just as described, Bruce and Victoria were extremely thoughtful hosts! The neighborhood was picturesque and quiet, and made for a perfect early morning walk after a great night's sleep. We are looking forward to staying here again on our next visit to Bethel!

Laurie2015-05-10T00:00:00Z

I arrived to find a welcome posted to the door. Shortly after arriving, Victoria checked in with me in person to answer questions and showed me how to work the t.v. The apartment with lovely, spacious, comfortable, quiet and clean. I had a good night's sleep and had everything I needed, including breakfast makings (eggs, bread, juice, coffee and milk). Bethel is a place I get to fairly frequently, and I look forward to staying here again. Thanks, Bruce and Victoria, for your hospitality.

Judi2015-07-18T00:00:00Z

Great welcome from Bruce and Victoria who were very helpful and friendly. They had stocked the fridge with breakfast goodies for next morning and even placed beer glasses in the freezer. Wifi worked well but there was no cell reception so be warned. We would love to be able to visit again.

Ashley2015-10-06T00:00:00Z

This apartment is great! Everything you could need is provided. Extra surprises we found included lots of personal touches, chilled mugs in the freezer, and wonderful books to enjoy, We loved the location and will definitely return for a longer stay next time. Bruce and Victoria offered the perfect combination of privacy and conversation!

Laura2013-08-26T00:00:00Z

This is a lovely apartment attached to the owner's home. (Separate entrance, complete privacy.) It has a feel of immediate comfort and hominess. The kitchen is set up with everything you might need. The setting is peaceful and relaxing, in the woods with easy access to Bethel and routes 26, 2 & 5. Bruce and Victoria are wonderful people and thoughtful hosts.

John2014-07-30T00:00:00Z

Everything was great. Bruce and Victoria were lovely. The place was spacious with a nice deck, and (VERY) quiet! We really enjoyed staying there and hope to come back.

Nicolas2014-08-20T00:00:00Z

This apartment is one of the best we have ever stayed in. It is just the right size ( there were 2 of us ) and has everything you need. The hosts are very welcoming and the place is spotless. It is in a quiet area and there are great views of the White mountains along the road. The photos of the listing are accurate and it is very nice to have some complimentary food in the fridge. We would love to return here for a future visit!

Country Style Horse Farm w/ separate apartment and driveway on the other side of the house. Long Lake is 500yards, Shawnee Peak is under 10 miles, Bridgton Academy is at the end of the street.

The place was perfect for our needs! The master bedroom is huge and beautiful. The area is very tranquil and served as the perfect getaway. Sandy was also very helpful on places to eat in the area.

Julia2017-03-05T00:00:00Z

Sandy and Terri are gracious hosts and their place is just perfect for a relaxing vacation in Maine. You can walk to the beach on either Long Lake or Crystal Lake, Bridgton is a short drive where there is great shopping and dining. A 45 minute scenic drive gets you to North Conway or you can easily get to Bethel - both areas have hiking or skiing. Shawnee Peak is even closer. The place is cozy, clean (the mattress is awesome!) and comfortable. A perfect stay! Thank you, Sandy and Terri!

Kathy2017-07-06T00:00:00Z

sandy was a really warm n helpful host. she welcomed us w/open arms, even she helped us dig our car out when it got stuck in the blizzard. she was born n raised in the area, so is very knowledgeable w/any info that was needed. the house is huge n our half of the place was more than enough for 2 adults, 1 kid n 1 dog. we had a big modern kitchen n a big living room. i also love that the farm house was so quintessentially New England...

Evie2016-12-30T00:00:00Z

Beautiful home. Sandy was just perfect!! Our stay was amazing and the hospitality was second-to-none. Communication was an A++++ :). Thank you for opening your home to us!

Lee2017-05-11T00:00:00Z

What an excellent family ski trip adventure! The place was spectacular and Sandy was the best!

Yasmin2017-02-23T00:00:00Z

Sandy was a wonderful host, always prompt in her responding to any questions we had. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. Highly recommended for families or couples!

sandi2017-05-28T00:00:00Z

Great comfortable place in the country. Very spacious and clean.

Gary2017-05-06T00:00:00Z

If you are going up to this area in Maine then this is the place you will want to stay. Sandy and Terry are Fantastic people. They treat you like family. They are super nice, down to earth and very accomodating. The roons are super clean and spacious. The decor was excellantly done with a beautiful New England style . The Canopy bed in one of the rooms is so comfortable and brings you back to another time and place. We loved it here and will be going back. It is quiet and peaceful a perfect get away from the hustle and bustle of life. Downtown Bridgton is only minutes away and is full of quaint shops and restaurants. We recommend Vivo's for a wonderful Italian experience. If you get the opportunity stay there you will not regret it.

Large farmhouse apartment overlooking Pleasant Lake. Includes large kitchen, full bath, W/D, large enclosed porch, wood stove in LR, amenities of small village. Property abuts public beach. My apologies but not right for pets. Also I want any inquires to understand-my pricing reflects demand. Obviously I am not going to rent a beautiful apartment on a lake in July and August for the same price I rent it for in April. My base is 70.00 but please check the calendar for price fluctuations.

Property abuts the public beach. Sub/ice cream shop with good food across the street. Also a great country store with wine beer coffee, very good pizza and breakfast sandwiches! yum yum

It is a small ME village

We only had 1 night to enjoy this charming location. The apartment is well located in the village. It is across the street from a nice sub shop with ice cream and a convenience store with pizza oven. Adjacent to the apartment is a swim beach and boat ramp. The large apartment is in a lovely old home built over 150 yrs. ago. It is spacious and boasts a huge kitchen and screened room overlooking the lake. It is spotlessly clean and tidy. It does not have a tv or entertainment center at this writing. This was not an issue as we rarely watch tv while traveling and we carry our own tunes. Wifi was spotty but the hosts are upgrading. Sharlene is a delightful and helpful host.

Michael2016-06-19T00:00:00Z

Quiet place, great to have a kitchen for cooking..but the market down the street makes a great breakfast pizza and good ice cream right across the street! Was nice to watch the boats on the lake from the enclosed porch in the mornings. Comfy bed and hot shower, lots of peace and quiet. Thanks, Sharlene!

Amy2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

It was a lovely place to stay, the apartment was as spacious as described and the view of the lake was very nice in the morning. The people in the shop over the road were very friendly and helpful. Overall a wonderful place and we were very sorry we couldn't stay for more than a night.

Ben2015-05-27T00:00:00Z

Phenomenal place that is cozy with a beautiful view. Thank you so much Sharlene. I would definitely come again.

Moneissa2017-06-08T00:00:00Z

Wonderful place and a gorgeous location. Home is just as described, highly recommend!

Paul2017-07-09T00:00:00Z

We really enjoyed our stay at Sharlene's place. She gave us lots of great information before we arrived. We had sandwiches from across the street which were great. We even got in one of the last swims of the summer at the beach next door.

Lara2016-09-06T00:00:00Z

I was totally in love with Sharlene's apartment for rent in Casco. It is exactly as described, and better, with a beautiful enclosed porch overlooking a sparkling lake, and TONS of space. I was staying by myself for a night, and I wish I stayed longer! I hope to come back here again. Amazing spot, great host, and a lovely trip.

Sarah Mae2015-05-04T00:00:00Z

Sharlene's pad was perfect for a quiet retreat in the middle of spring. Not only is it a beautiful ride to her home, her home is equally beautiful (and just as she describes it). A plus is that Sharlene let us use her row boat and quickly responded to my texts. Thank you Sharlene!

Bright sunny private apartment overlooking Crescent Lake with access to the public beach just a short walk away. Take advantage of the many hiking trails in the area, kayaking on the lake or just relax and listen to the Loons. Casco is located in the Lakes Region so there is lots to do. There are several boys and girls camps neary. Great place to enjoy fall foliage. Cable/WIFI available. The apartment is NOT equipped for infants/toddlers,children ages 6 and up welcome. Sorry, NO pets.

2 BR each with a queen bed. Full bathroom and half bath. Large bright living room with beautiful lake views Kitchen fully equipped with dishwasher, stove , microwave, fridge and garbage disposal, washer /dryer The rooms offer a lot of natural light on sunny days and great views of the lake.

The home sits on large lot across from a small clean public beach . Enjoy the views of boaters, morning sunrises, and fall foliage. Crescent Lake is home to many boys and girls camps.

Pamela was very nice and quick to respond. The place is nice with a great location (especially if your child is at a nearby camp; Agawam is less than 5 minutes away) with a nice view and access to the lake. While clean, the accommodations are a bit dated. I did not like how the charges were structured; I don't think that one rate should be advertised for a whole house (with two queen beds), but there is an upcharge for more than 2 people. Pamela was nice about it, but we ended up paying more than $300 per night, when it is advertised at $190. It would be fairer if a premium was charged when more than 4 people wanted to stay at the rental.

peter2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Pam was quite welcoming - with texts before our arrival and during her stay. The house is comfortable and spacious. The bedrooms are comfortable and having 1.5 bathrooms makes a difference for a family. The lake view is great and the lake access wonderfully easy. Definitely worth a stay.

Paula2016-09-04T00:00:00Z

Pamela was a fantastic, friendly host and made my parents feel very welcome. She was very accommodating to their needs. Her spacious rental is in a great location and has beautiful views of Crescent Lake.

Kari2016-07-25T00:00:00Z

Pamela is a friendly and welcoming host but at the same time gave us privacy. The home is very spacious, immaculately clean, and the view to the lake is spectacular. We enjoyed taking her canoe out on beautiful Crescent Lake. It is located in a very quiet area but not far from Windham, Naples and Grey for good shopping and dining. My husband and I had such a wonderful time that we hope to return next summer.

Rita2017-07-13T00:00:00Z

A beautiful setting in the woods overlooking Crescent Lake. Comfortable, private and spacious with everything you will need. Nice area for walking, hiking or playing on the lake. Pamela (the Host) is very accommodating and thoughtful. Easy level access - no stairs. Easy drive to/from Portland airport as well as many charming local interests.

Stan2017-07-01T00:00:00Z

Pamela was a wonderful host. The location is perfect for some lakeside days and quiet nights. Pamela was gracious enough to lend us use of her canoe during the day. This enabled us to paddle out to one of the islands on Crescent Lake and post up on a sand bar for a relaxing day of reading sitting in shallow water. At night she let us use her grill which was a wonderful treat for us city folk who's grill access if few and far between. Thanks again Pam for enabling such a wonderful weekend!

Stanislaw2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Pam was a wonderful host. Really welcoming and friendly with lots of great advise on places to visit. Pam was very responsive to any questions we had before and during our stay. A lovely coffee and tea hamper awaited us in the kitchen and Pam stopped by with freshly picked blueberries on our first morning. The property is just as the pictures depict. A homely lakeside property with 2 comfortable bedrooms, a large living space and kitchen, as well as utility room with a second restroom and washer, dryer. We cooked most days and had all the equipment we needed to make a good dinner with groceries from the local supermarket 10 mins drive away in Naples. The location of the property is fantastic with wonderful views of the lake. The lake itself is a 2 mins walk across the front lawn of the property. We enjoyed the residents' beach and canoeing using Pam's canoe. Naples is a great little town 10 mins drive away where you can enjoy lakeside restaurants, hire boats, paddle boards, etc. and take a trip on the Songo River Queen II on Long Lake. One day we drove up to the White Mountains which was a fantastic day trip. We visited the iconic Mount Washington hotel where you can enjoy a fairly inexpensive lunch with mountain views. Then on to Willey House and Diana's Baths. A great summer retreat. We enjoyed it so much we extended by another three nights!

Daisy2016-08-08T00:00:00Z

My parents and I had a wonderful stay at Pam's lake house. It was one of our best airbnb experiences ever. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and most importantly, extremely clean. All necessary amenities are provided from the bathroom to the kitchen. Not to mention the amazing view of the lake outside the big living room windows. We were simultaneously watching three fourth of July fireworks while relaxing on the sofas. Pam is a wonderful host who gave us lots of recommendations for local restaurants and attractions.

Charles is a fantastic host and his place is perfect for a getaway. This is our third stay with Charles! Bridgton is a lovely town.

Micaela2017-07-01T00:00:00Z

Charles was an excellent host. Very comminicative and accomodating. The space was great and if I'm in the area would love to stay again.

Jeremy2015-08-10T00:00:00Z

Everything worked just fine. Easy to find, get the key and private. The lodging looked very new and was quite clean. Nice and close to our family and the visiting we were doing. thanks Charles - and thanks for offering some board games to us during our stay.

janet2014-12-31T00:00:00Z

Safe, clean, convenient and exactly as advertised. Also, Charles is very nice and helpful.

Marnix2014-12-23T00:00:00Z

The neighborhood is located perfectly for walking a short distance to the lake/beach and all the amenities of town. Yet it is still quiet and feels away from the hustle bustle. We stayed in the winter but highly recommend it for the summer.

Karen2016-12-26T00:00:00Z

Charles was very responsive to my request to book the suite and to any questions we had along the way. The check in process was easy. The suite matched the photos we saw online and it was clean. The accommodations themselves are very basic (no frills). We did not find the bedding or pillows to be exceptionally comfortable, but on the plus side the suite is located within an easy walk to town that has some shops and restaurants, the air conditioning worked, and the wireless service was reliable. There were some guests staying in the main house while we were there, and you could hear them talking at times (there is a locked door separating the residences). We also shared a driveway with them, but it wasn't problematic.

Stefanie2015-08-18T00:00:00Z

Charles was very friendly and accommodating. We needed late check out so we got fit in another day of skiing. Great value for keeping our vacation expenses down.

JoeTRealtor2016-01-05T00:00:00Z

Charlie is an excellent host and his apartment was great! My friends and I had a wonderful time in Maine and New Hampshire since the place was located around a lot of activities. Charlie was easy to talk to because he responded very quickly to messages through airbnb. He also gave me his number and constantly reminded me to let him know if we needed anything. Whether it was answering our questions or giving us advice on what activities were available, Charlie was very helpful. No complaints here, everything was great. Thanks for letting us stay!
